As intended, Andrea’s words make Mrs. Florence Hamilton quite anxious.
“Leonie, I haven’t tasted your fish soup,” she says in a conciliatory tone, “How about you make some for me?”
Leonie wants nothing more than to stab Andrea with one of the silver forks. She doesn’t know if the pregnancy is genuine or pretense. If Andrea’s faking it, it’s okay—the truth will come out soon enough.
“But if she’s truly pregnant, that’s bad,” Leonie thinks, “Lance’s grandfather will send Diana back if Andrea’s pregnant. If Lance and Andrea are finally divorcing, Diana can’t come back because she stands to gain the most from the divorce. Leonie knows she can’t allow Diana to come back until she’s secured her own position and married Lance, but she also doesn’t want Andrea to have Lance’s baby.”
